Today, we are inspired by… Kate Middleton.

Kate has become a true fashion icon and keeps on inspiring us with her simple yet chic style.

She looks stunning just wearing  a pair of coral jeans, a blazer and a beautiful smile. As Will and the rest of Britain, we have fallen in love with her!

Get the look: Echo beats coral jeans

A weekend away…



Isn’t it amazing when you get to a certain place and you just feel the inner peace returning?! I have this with Biarritz. A piece of my heart is always waiting for me to return. The minute I return, I feel like home. As if the ocean and the lighthouse were welcoming myself, whenever I get back. Lately I went back to Biarritz on a holiday and managed to catch a few sun rays! Lucky me!

Today I would like to show you my secret and most favorite spot in Biarritz!

It is a spot where I enjoy sitting by myself, reading a book and listening to the sound of the ocean. What could be better than that?

I am wearing the UNION SHORTS in ink blue. Those shorts are super easy to wear with an animal print t-shirt! I am into rabbits, seriously! They are so cute. To pimp this simple outfit I used a black/grey/dark blue scarf I got in Istanbul, and wrapped it around my head, like a cleaning lady would have done back in the days. To add some color to my outfit, I chose a red Quiksilver watch. Mind the detail!

Isn’t the view amazing? Those waves at le Grande Plage were a mess but looked stunning anyways.

Now, back home in Switzerland I am feeling a little homesick looking at these photos, I guess we all have that girls, right?

All the best, Recha.

DIPLOOS

Since a few years I teach “fashion illustrations” @ IUAV University of Venice, Italy.

This post is dedicated to my beloved student Diletta ♥

She designed amazing outfits called “diplòos”. (see picture)
One day she asked me to draw a few illustrations inspired by her creations.
I was in Morocco at that time and the fatima’s hand (hamsa) is part of the story.
Now she is “building” a t-shirt for me… I can’t wait to wear it!

Wishing to Diletta Albertini a long career full of beautiful colors…
love! NR

Photo shoot in Prague for new EP and Album

Had a crazy time in Prague with Brilliant and creative photographer Bara Prasilova and her team shooting the artwork for my new music releases this year! We spent the first day in Prague marvelling at beautiful architecture and fairytale like castles,whilst turning down trips to museums of ancient torture and ancient grave yards (maybe next time! lol)

Bara’s first location for the shoot was in a beautiful 1930s style swimming pool, with an outdoor heated pool. Some of the pools were empty of water, which gave the place a lot of character and I loved the grand stadium seating surrounding the pools.

(Our Shirt: Third bay shirt here! )

We did the shoot with a massive amount of clothes and took so many pics I felt like I had done a full on work out at the gym by the end of the day! Loved every minute of it and always inspired by Bara’s creative and unique vision.

( The dress: Mermaid dress here! )

The second day we shot in another old 1930s building that used to be very expensive to rent but is now used mainly by artists. We had a little helper that tried to get in on the shoot! (not Dave my guitarst,co-writer and best friend lol, the sweet black dog!)

( Dress: Tiki Tile Mini here! wear with the third bay shirt here! )

( Cardigan: Dunes Open Knit Card here! )

Check out Bara Prasilova’s photography at her website which is http://www.baraprasilova.com
and come and see me at http://www.facebook.com/ellielawsonmusic to keep updated on the releases! Thanks to Quiksilver Women for the clothes :-)

Spotted in Glamour France, our very own Breezer Short…  We love the Far West twist the stylist gave to our favourite short this season.

Shorts will be “THE must have” piece this summer… we’ve seen them in every shape and every wash, be it classic, worn out or super colorful.
